EU YOUTH CINEMA: GREEN DEAL – LJUBLJANA

The Association EPEKA, Soc. Ent., organises a screening of films in Ljubljana as part of the EU Youth Cinema: Green Deal (EUYC:GD 2024-2026).

EU Youth Cinema: Green Deal is an innovative project dedicated to a sustainable Europe, presenting the European Union’ s green objectives in a cinematic context, contributing to the appreciation and understanding of the EU Green Deal, mainly among young viewers, and providing a platform for a multicultural approach to the Green Agenda. We have successfully implemented the project in the period 2022-2024, involving almost 5,000 young people in film events in seven Slovenian cities and thousands more in the streaming part of the programme. We are continuing the project in 2024-2026, with a further 23 screenings across Slovenia and online engagement through www.euyc.green.

EUYC:GD 2024-2026 will be actively co-created by the same four partners already behind the success of the previous edition 2022-2024 of EUYC:GD: LET’S CEE Filmfestival Association and communication consultancy agency Chapter 4 from Austria, the Scientific Research Association for Arts, Cultural and Educational Programmes and Technology EPEKA from Slovenia and the Go Green Skopje Association from North Macedonia. A new partner in the group is the Ukrainian NGO INNOVATION GENERATION, which will launch the Ukrainian edition of EUYC:GD.

Agbogbloshie in Accra is the world’s largest electronic waste dump. About 6,000 women, men and children live and work here. They call it “Sodom”. Every year, around 250,000 tonnes of discarded computers, smartphones, air conditioners and other devices from the far-flung digital and electrical world end up here. Illegal. Their inner voices give us a deep insight into life here.
